    Time to bump the dose?

    The skin sensitivity can be really irritating and honestly, tiring. But it's still better than being overweight. I had it a lot when I was increasing my dose, and then it went away for a bit.

    GLP-1 meds - Help a newbie out?

    Update: I just bought over a year's worth of sema for $200 (10 vials with 10mg). I also spent like $70 on injection supplies. Mixing it was easy, I just watched a YouTube video. Last week, I bumped up my dose to 1mg a week. Still getting slight cramps when I poop. It isn't bad. It only happens...

    GLP-1 meds - Help a newbie out?

    I can only talk about my experience with semaglutide (Ozempic and Wegovy). My husband and my mom both take Ozempic for diabetes, and their insurance covers it. My mom is on Medicare and pays $45 for a month's supply. My husband pays a $25 copay for the same thing. My insurance wouldn't cover...

    Weight loss & better treatment: Real?

    I've heard some people get really depressed on these meds, even if they're already on antidepressants. Has anyone else experienced that? I'd talk to your doctor ASAP if you're feeling extra sad or unmotivated.

    Weight loss & better treatment: Real?

    I think a lot of it is that losing weight makes you feel better about yourself, and that affects how you interact with the world and how people respond to you.

    GLP-1's for Longevity?

    That's too bad. I wonder if it will drive the price of the name brand versions up even more.

    New belt notch - celebration!

    FYI, if you want to shorten your belt so it looks like the factory did it, take it to a shoe repair place. They'll shorten it from the buckle end. It cost me $9 and it looks perfect.

    Ozempic Success & Switched Meds

    I'm going back on semaglutide after a year on tirzepatide. I had better blood sugar and cholesterol levels with semaglutide. My numbers crept up a bit after being on tirzepatide for six months, even though clinical trials showed better results with tirz.
